Oh.....well.......erm....hmmmm. Fair enough but would mind explaining quite what would be so bad about it and how exactly it would effect you?

I really don't want to play other sites, I have played here for very nearly 3 years and have seen it grow from a baby site but every so often I just miss a tourney by maybe seconds or a couple of mins and I hate that.

If there is a good reason then fair enough but I can't see how it would hurt anyone already registered, it just increases the prize pool.

I would like to see a five minute window at least for certain tournaments but not sats or speed/turbo events.

Late entry into a lottery might help my chances

I don't see any good reason not to have late registration for the bigger tournaments.

Like satty says everyone wins.... im just assuming its a software issue.

-1 !

Just set a timer urself so you won be late for an MTT youd like to play...

If you start with Late Registrations.. all you get in a couple of months.. could you please make the late regestration longer i always miss the MTTs by a second so there will be a late regestration for late registrations.. makes no sense !! :D

there should be late registrations BUT, as is with at casinos
there should be a fee

So perhaps a chip fee or double registration buy in if late. because they do these kind of fees at a casino, but i do think 1 hr of late regs wouldnt be too bad

The only way I would ever be interested in late regs is if they were for 5mins only...5 mins into a game isn't to bad and to be fair about 2mins of that is seating time...But that is about the only way I think it would be acceptable..

The reason it isn't available yet is because we haven't built lthe functionality, but we have added it to the 'to do' list.

We certainly want it and I have been trying to get it pushed up the list for a while, but it wil probably be at least a few more months until it is done.

I'm not sure if we would go as far as other sites by having a full hour and obviously there would be no late reg in satellites or turbos.

I do think a nice simple 20-30 minute late reg would be a great improvement myself.

Month's away anyway...

the only reason you pkr guys want it in is because there is always one of you that hasn't turned up in time...

how can it possibly ruin the game ?? i just dont get it ??

it is the best idea ever, ad the biggest thing that is mising from pkr right now.

if any of the people with power (stop smiling jabba/danski, i dont mean you two ) see this PLEASE PLEASE put it to the top of your list.

firstly it will allow more people into the tournaments, thus more money in the pot for us all to win, /cheer

2ndly it doesnt affect anybody in the tournament who is already sat an extra 20 people in a 300 runer ebvent or more doesnt mean anything, hardly changes the dynamics of the game.

3rdly it means players dont have to rush, if they forget its ok.

i would only have a 1 or 2 level late registraiion period, anything over that is excessive.

give me one example of a casino tht charges an extra fee for late entries and i will eat my left nut.

to all of u who dont like it WTF!! everyone wins. the only reaso i ca imagine tht u dont like it is tht o well they werent here from start so its ono fair i might be bust before they even sit. simple fact is the players who are there from start have an advantage over late regs cos u see more hands with a lrger stack(relevant to the BB). there can be no arguement gainst unless u r naive or sado-masochistic

Why dont people use the PKR pal? and get it to come up and tell you when your tournaments are coming up? i find this very useful as it tells you like 10 minutes before or less when the tournament is starting?

no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no NO
i hate late reg
some players join a tourn because they have all the info infront of them IE player numbers payout, nothin worse for your head 58 mins into the game and still players are allowed to enter. grrrr
if u must have late reg then 10 mins open reg after start is long enough but still its not good for some people

I am ok with this provided it is allowed only for the first couple of levels and also there is a maximum allocation of 10% of the total original entrants to avoid a drastic change in the payouts and dynamics.

Also a deffo no no for sats IMO
